PARENT EDUCATION
TIME MANAGEMENT AND STUDY SKILLS Cynthia C. Muchnick, M.A. writes, After this challenging year of Zoom school, hybrid learning, and all sorts of unknowns for students, traditional study skills and time management strategies fell by the wayside. 

Most students didn’t have the opportunity to see peers or engage with teachers face-to-face, and many kids even developed unusual sleep patterns. (How many of you had child vampires who stayed up late far beyond what is considered healthy for tweens and teens and were exhausted during the day?) And when kids did roll out of bed to attend class, they did so in pajamas, and with more of a temptation to cheat than ever before...read more here.
 
Coming up...look for parent education resources on teens and sleep.

If you have parent education topic ideas or shareable resources, please reach out to Parent Education Chairs Alicia Griffith or Chris Flitter. For information about Parent Education Opportunities, visit the parent education page on the CPC website.
